Euclid has been launched in July 2023 with the first internal Data Release DR1 planned for December 2024. While Euclid has primarily been optimised for the study of dark matter and dark energy, the wealth of data it will accumulate promises groundbreaking insights into Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), their origins, and their evolution.
In this talk I will show you how Euclid will identify and...
In this talk I will present some of the results from the first 2 years of JWST data. In particular, I will talk about the results from the MIRI GTO high-z team, that I am a part of, concerning intermediate to high redshift galaxies.
The results I will present have been obtained using the combination of several instruments on board of JWST: NIRCam, MIRI, NIRISS, in both imaging and...
In this talk, I will present a novel method for inferring the mass composition of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) from the electromagnetic profile of their air showers. By capturing the main features of the profile in few moments of the distribution, we can use nested sampling algorithms to probe the full shape of the likelihood. Furthermore, I will explore opportunities for enhancing...
I am the lead scientist for archive and data processing operations at the Chandra X-ray Center. In this talk, I will shortly describe what it is like for an astrophysicist to be working in the operations of a big mission like Chandra and will describe the main traits of my professional development that led me to my current position. I will emphasize opportunities and challenges of this career...
Primordial Black holes with mass of 10^15 g should have been evaporated by now giving potentially access to the physics of the Early Universe. In particular, the presence of PBH could have impacted the process of leptogenesis in different ways depending on the mass and so on the temperature of the PBHs. We present the impact of the non-standard cosmology driven by the presence and the...

I will present a multiplicity of science-ready tools based on machine learning to both fast and accurately analyse the data from upcoming large sky surveys and best exploit them for science. As a science case, I'll discuss the measurement of the total mass of galaxies using strong lensing and galaxy dynamics.

Although Dark matter (DM) is one of the cornerstones of fundamental physics and cosmology, so far it has evaded all the attempts to unveil its nature. A standard way to directly probe DM particles is to search for their scatterings with nucleons in underground detectors. However, in case of DM particles with sub-GeV masses, the direct-detection technique is hampered by the low nucleon recoil...
I will give an overview of the work carried on over the last years to determine the gravitational structure of our Mother Galaxy, the Milky Way, especially in relation to its most prominent component, the Dark Matter.
I will also briefly show some examples on how astrophysical uncertainties that hinder such determination affect interpretation of particle dark matter searches, and Beyond the...
